317L Stainless Steel Tube is a molybdenum-bearing low carbon “L” grade austenitic stainless steel that offers improved corrosion resistance compared to 304L and 316L grades. Furthermore, its low carbon content prevents sensitization during welding or other thermal processes.
Comparing to type 316L, 317L offers better corrosion resistance in a wider variety of corrosive process environments. Furthermore, it is less sensitive to intergranular corrosion caused by chromium carbide precipitation at grain boundaries, thus decreasing the likelihood of failure due to corrosion.

Molybdenum added to an alloy provides enhanced chemical resistance against sulfurous, acetic, formic, citric, and tartaric acids. Furthermore, molybdenum increases creep strength as well as stress rupture and tensile strength when exposed to elevated temperatures.
These stainless steel tubes come in a range of forms, such as welded, seamless, round, square and thin-walled. You also have the option to select from various lengths to suit your individual requirements.
Welded stainless steel tubes are a popular option for applications involving high pressure or stress-relieving treatments. As they require less drawing and annealing, it saves time and reduces downtime.
Weld stainless steel tubing is more cost-effective and simpler to work with than seamless tubing, as they’re easy to assemble and cut to shape using standard equipment and tools. Plus, their longer lifespan makes them resistant to damage caused by exposure to harsh environments; they find applications in various industries such as marine structures or architectural structures.
